Leap of Faith

 Sometimes there is nothing you can do about a situation. Nothing you say will change the way someone thinks. You have to just let it go and keep moving forward. Prayer helps. God knows the truth, leave it in God's hands and let Him do what He chooses to do with it. Sometimes He will fix it and sometimes even He will let it go. It's not your sin, you didn't do anything wrong. We are all instruments of 'free will'. He doesn't change our minds, to do what is right. He gives us opportunity to do what is right on our own. Sadly, not everyone has the conviction for it. 

 Life is messy. There are so many influences in each one of our lives. The good, the bad and so many in between. Parents raise their children, but the world influences them. 'Free Will' gives each of us the choice to decide what we will do and which way we will go. More often than not, people are hurt by other people's choices. How we handle the pain is our own choice. We can let it continue to hurt, or we can choose to heal and move forward. 

 We cannot change the past, not our own nor anyone else's. We live in the now. Too often that is forgotten with planning the future. 'The now' is missed out on, because we are waiting for 'tomorrow'.  It's good to think about the plans for tomorrow, but not to let it waste our time today. Every minute is an opportunity to live in the 'now'. Look for the good in this moment, don't wait for the 'good' to come. Look around right now and you will see something to smile about. No matter how dark a moment might feel. 

 Living in a dark situation can be depressing, hard to cope with and sometimes it feels like it's never going to end. Shut it out. Ignore the people that choose to bring you down and make life so dark. Remember who you are and be YOU. Live for you. It's okay to hope and pray that the situation will change or come to an end. And one day it probably will. Don't let it make you so bitter you forget who you are. Don't let it stop you from finding happiness and joy in life, today. Tomorrow will come. 

 You just have to have faith. Sometimes you have to jump with a leap of faith, to get to where you really want to be. Sometimes you have to walk away from people and situations that are not right for you in your life. No matter how scary or uncertain it can be. You can't always get rid of the negative in an instant, sometimes it takes time. Don't live paralyzed waiting for tomorrow. Remember to live for today. 

 Make the changes in your own life that will bring you closer to God and let God, work on everything else. Focus Forward and Just Breathe. Be real, keep it real. Respect yourself and life. You don't have to respect those that bring you down, but you don't have to be disrespectful either. 

 God knows the truth; God sees your heart. Trust in God. Take the leap of faith. 

Blessed by God

All in God's Time

 

You hope - you pray - you wait.  God works in God's time.

It really is a cute little house. With potential and promise of peace at last. I will miss the sunsets, as they are so beautiful here. Even when living in the truck, I was always looking forward to the sunrise and sunsets. 

The go ahead on moving has finally happened, the location and the timing set. Now for the stress of packing and coming up with the moving truck, to make it all one load. It's a bit of a distance so I don't want to waste time and extra gas making multiple trips. The cost of a rental truck vs the cost of gas and time, makes me lean towards the rental truck more. Still a few things needed to make it a home, some furniture pieces and necessary elements. They too shall come in time. 

This weekend was spent helping friends with things on their 'to do' lists. Saturday was replacing a post on the horses shelter, Sunday cleaning out a garage so the electricians can get to the breaker box for repairs. In between was a drive to the house to confirm it will work for me. Managed to get a couple work 'shops' done along the way. It felt good to be of service to others, to those that have done so much for me along the way. I will never be able to repay all I owe to all who have helped, but I will always be available to help with things that need done. 

Now this week, I have 57 shops and inspections to complete by the 15th. Totally do able just need to plan the route to be most gas efficient. Packing is minimal, as I have been living out of boxes for over a year now. What needs packed up can be done in an evening before the move itself.  The house here will need a good cleaning once I'm moved out, which will be just as easy.

The thrill of being able to unpack and feel like I'm finally home, Is overwhelming with emotions. It's been a long wait to get here. There have been so many 'what about doing this or that' So many 'go here go there'. Finally, a place to stop and plant my roots back into the ground.

Somehow in all the Cáos I've managed to renew my licenses both for the business and my Notary Public. 

I've built up my client base to exceed the disability - So now I take a leap of faith and end my disability to rely on myself. Hoping the income will increase and continue to carry me forward. 

Many prayers and praises have gotten me to here. God has blessed me with so many miracles and blessings I can't help but think this too shall be a blessing overflowing. 

I continue to pray for my family and all the healing they need to happen. All the issues that still need resolved. The devil will do all he can to destroy the family, look at how much he has already destroyed family values all over the world and in this country alone. My little family has been ripped apart in so many directions, I pray for each of them daily. 

Alcohol, drugs and 'other people's beliefs' have done so much damage to so many families. You do all you can to protect them when they are young and you pray all you can as they grow up. The final resolve is in God's time. I have friends that have lost their child, from this life, from their love, and from so many outside factors. It is truly heartbreaking to see what has happened to so many families, of friends. 

I'm looking forward to a peaceful life. I will be far enough away from all the past memories and bad things that have happened in life, I just might be able to see a beautiful future. No negative, no blame, no having to defend myself. Nobody coming up to me to accuse me of things, nobody that 'remembers' how I used to be or what people have said about me.  A chance to be myself, the person I am inside that has rarely been seen because of all the trauma and lying enemies in my path. 

Everything happens for a reason and everything works out in God's time. 

 It's finally my time to enjoy life, without all the negativity, accusations and attitudes. 

Blessed by God
